[Intro] Em C Am D Em C Am D Em C Am D Bm Em [Verse 1]
            Em
And do they follow you in the dead of night

         C                Am
Do their shadows line the walls?

        Em
Do they come for you as you thought they might?

           C                Am
And do you answer when they call?

   Bm     C                 G
Or do you hide your face to avoid their gaze

     Am           Bm
Self-diagnosed, a hopeless case

   C              D
Is there a better way?
[Chorus]
                           Em                C
I don't know what it would take to save your life

                       Am                  D
But if you'd give me a chance, I'd like to try

              Em            C
I'm not gonna say that it's alright

               Am                  D         Bm    Em
'Cause we both know, yeah, we both know it's not alright
[Verse 2]
       Em
In the forest when the serpent strikеs

        C               Am
I would suck the poison dry

       Em
In the oceans whеn the waters rise

        C                 Am
I would drag you from the tide

  Bm        C
I feel your shallow breath

     G
Your pulse slowing down

    Am              Bm
And I won't let you drown
[Chorus]
                           Em                C
I don't know what it would take to save your life

                       Am                  D
But if you'd give me a chance, I'd like to try

              Em            C
I'm not gonna say that it's alright

               Am                  D               C     D
'Cause we both know, yeah, we both know it's not alright
[Post-Chorus]
           Em
It's not alright
C D Em Em G [Bridge]
  C                           Em   G
A demolition countdown set to blow

    C                                    Em   G
But there's a light still on, somebody's home

        Em                                  G
But the chainsaw's purr (But the chainsaw's purr)

        Em                       C     D
And the vultures stir, circling around
[Chorus]
                Em                C
What's it gonna take to save your life?

               Am                D
Just give me a chance and I will try

              Em              C
I'm not gonna say that it's alright

               Am                  D
'Cause we both know, yeah, we both know

                                Em                C
That I don't know what it would take to save your life

                       Am                  D
But if you'd give me a chance, I'd like to try

              Em            C
I'm not gonna say that it's alright

               Am                  D               Em   C Am D
'Cause we both know, yeah, we both know it's not alright
[Post-Chorus]
           Em   C
It's not alright
[Outro]
               Am                  D               Em
'Cause we both know, yeah, we both know it's not alright
